Colin Lord bf18bee547 blockdev: clean up error handling in do_open_tray
Returns negative error codes and accompanying error messages in cases where
the device has no tray or the tray is locked and isn't forced open. This
extra information should result in better flexibility in functions that
call do_open_tray.

Kevin Wolf b880481579 mirror: Allow target that already has a BlockBackend
We had to forbid mirroring to a target BDS that already had a BB
attached because the node swapping at job completion would add a second
BB and we didn't support multiple BBs on a single BDS at the time. Now
we do, so we can lift the restriction.

As we allow additional BlockBackends for the target, we must expect
other users to be sending requests. There may no requests be in flight
during the graph modification, so we have to drain those users now.

The core part of this patch is a revert of commit 40365552.

Max Reitz 5b3639371c block: Make bdrv_open() return a BDS
There are no callers to bdrv_open() or bdrv_open_inherit() left that
pass a pointer to a non-NULL BDS pointer as the first argument of these
functions, so we can finally drop that parameter and just make them
return the new BDS.

Generally, the following pattern is applied:

    bs = NULL;
    ret = bdrv_open(&bs, ..., &local_err);
    if (ret < 0) {
        error_propagate(errp, local_err);
        ...
    }

by

    bs = bdrv_open(..., errp);
    if (!bs) {
        ret = -EINVAL;
        ...
    }

Of course, there are only a few instances where the pattern is really
pure.

If you use HMP's eject but the CDROM tray is locked, you may get a

As this is the point of eject, we can do a little better and help

so try again.

It's not ideal, but it makes the semantics of the (legacy) eject

Kevin Wolf 76b223200e block: Forbid I/O throttling on nodes with multiple parents for 2.6
As the patches to move I/O throttling to BlockBackend didn't make it in
time for the 2.6 release, but the release adds new ways of configuring
VMs whose behaviour would change once the move is done, we need to
outlaw such configurations temporarily.

The problem exists whenever a BDS has more users than just its BB, for
example it is used as a backing file for another node. (This wasn't
possible in 2.5 yet as we introduced node references to specify a
backing file only recently.) In these cases, the throttling would
apply to these other users now, but after moving throttling to the
BlockBackend the other users wouldn't be throttled any more.

This patch prevents making new references to a throttled node as well as
using monitor commands to throttle a node with multiple parents.

Compared to 2.5 this changes behaviour in some corner cases where
references were allowed before, like bs->file or Quorum children. It
seems reasonable to assume that users didn't use I/O throttling on such
low level nodes. With the upcoming move of throttling into BlockBackend,
such configurations won't be possible anyway.

Kevin Wolf 61de4c6808 block: Remove BDRV_O_CACHE_WB
The previous patches have successively made blk->enable_write_cache the
true source for the information whether a writethrough mode must be
implemented. The corresponding BDRV_O_CACHE_WB is only useless baggage
we're carrying around, so now's the time to remove it.

At the same time, we remove the 'cache.writeback' option parsing on the
BDS level as the only effect was setting the BDRV_O_CACHE_WB flag.

This change requires test cases that explicitly enabled the option to
drop it. Other than that and the change of the error message when
writethrough is enabled on the BDS level (from "Can't set writethrough
mode" to "doesn't support the option"), there should be no change in
behaviour.

Kevin Wolf 73ac451f34 block: Reject writethrough mode except at the root
Writethrough mode is going to become a BlockBackend feature rather than
a BDS one, so forbid it in places where we won't be able to support it
when the code finally matches the envisioned design.

We only allowed setting the cache mode of non-root nodes after the 2.5
release, so we're still free to make this change.

The target of block jobs is now always opened in a writeback mode
because it doesn't have a BlockBackend attached. This makes more sense
anyway because block jobs know when to flush. If the graph is modified
on job completion, the original cache mode moves to the new root, so
for the guest device writethough always stays enabled if it was
configured this way.

Kevin Wolf 4c8449832c block: Remove copy-on-read from bdrv_move_feature_fields()
Ever since we first introduced bdrv_append() in commit 8802d1fd ('qapi:
Introduce blockdev-group-snapshot-sync command'), the copy-on-read flag
was moved to the new top layer when taking a snapshot. The only problem
is that it doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

The use case for manually enabled CoR is to avoid reading data twice
from a slow remote image, so we want to save it to a local overlay, say
an ISO image accessed via HTTP to a local qcow2 overlay. When taking a
snapshot, we end up with a backing chain like this:

    http <- local.qcow2 <- snap_overlay.qcow2

There is no point in doing CoR from local.qcow2 into snap_overlay.qcow2,
we just want to keep copying data from the remote source into
local.qcow2.

The other use case of CoR is in the context of streaming, which isn't
very interesting for bdrv_move_feature_fields() because op blockers
prevent this combination.

This patch makes the copy-on-read flag stay on the image for which it
was originally set and prevents it from being propagated to the new
overlay. It is no longer intended to move CoR to the BlockBackend level.
In order for this to make sense, we also need to keep the respective
image read-write.

As a side effect of these changes, creating a live snapshot image (as
opposed to using an existing externally created one) on top of a COR
block device works now. It used to fail because it tried to open its
backing file both read-only and with COR.

Eric Blake 32bafa8fdd qapi: Don't special-case simple union wrappers
Simple unions were carrying a special case that hid their 'data'
QMP member from the resulting C struct, via the hack method
QAPISchemaObjectTypeVariant.simple_union_type().  But by using
the work we started by unboxing flat union and alternate
branches, coupled with the ability to visit the members of an
implicit type, we can now expose the simple union's implicit
type in qapi-types.h:

| struct q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificQCow2_wrapper {
|     ImageInfoSpecificQCow2 *data;
| };
|
| struct q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificVmdk_wrapper {
|     ImageInfoSpecificVmdk *data;
| };
...
| struct ImageInfoSpecific {
|     ImageInfoSpecificKind type;
|     union { /* union tag is @type */
|         void *data;
|-        ImageInfoSpecificQCow2 *qcow2;
|-        ImageInfoSpecificVmdk *vmdk;
|+        q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificQCow2_wrapper qcow2;
|+        q_obj_ImageInfoSpecificVmdk_wrapper vmdk;
|     } u;
| };

Doing this removes asymmetry between QAPI's QMP side and its
C side (both sides now expose 'data'), and means that the
treatment of a simple union as sugar for a flat union is now
equivalent in both languages (previously the two approaches used
a different layer of dereferencing, where the simple union could
be converted to a flat union with equivalent C layout but
different {} on the wire, or to an equivalent QMP wire form
but with different C representation).  Using the implicit type
also lets us get rid of the simple_union_type() hack.

Of course, now all clients of simple unions have to adjust from
using su->u.member to using su->u.member.data; while this touches
a number of files in the tree, some earlier cleanup patches
helped minimize the change to the initialization of a temporary
variable rather than every single member access.  The generated
qapi-visit.c code is also affected by the layout change:

|@@ -7393,10 +7393,10 @@ void visit_type_ImageInfoSpecific_member

Max Reitz efaa7c4eeb blockdev: Split monitor reference from BB creation
Before this patch, blk_new() automatically assigned a name to the new
BlockBackend and considered it referenced by the monitor. This patch
removes the implicit monitor_add_blk() call from blk_new() (and
consequently the monitor_remove_blk() call from blk_delete(), too) and
thus blk_new() (and related functions) no longer take a BB name
argument.

In fact, there is only a single point where blk_new()/blk_new_open() is
called and the new BB is monitor-owned, and that is in blockdev_init().
Besides thus relieving us from having to invent names for all of the BBs
we use in qemu-img, this fixes a bug where qemu cannot create a new
image if there already is a monitor-owned BB named "image".

If a BB and its BDS tree are created in a single operation, as of this
patch the BDS tree will be created before the BB is given a name
(whereas it was the other way around before). This results in minor
change to the output of iotest 087, whose reference output is amended
accordingly.

Kevin Wolf abb21ac3e6 hmp: 'drive_add -n' for creating a node without BB
This patch adds an option to the drive_add HMP command to create only a
BlockDriverState without a BlockBackend on top.

The motivation for this is that libvirt needs to specify options to a
migration target (specifically, detect-zeroes). drive-mirror doesn't
allow specifying options, and the proper way to do this is to create the
target BDS separately with blockdev-add (where you can specify options)
and then use blockdev-mirror to that BDS.

However, libvirt can't use blockdev-add as long as it is still
experimental, and we're expecting that it will still take some time, so
we need to resort to drive_add.

The problem with drive_add is that so far it always created a BB, and
BDSes with a BB can't be used as a mirroring target as long as we don't
support multiple BBs per BDS - and while we're working towards that
goal, it's another thing that will still take some time.

So to achieve the goal, the simplest solution to provide the
functionality now without adding one-off options to the mirror QMP
commands is to extend drive_add to create nodes without BBs.

Kevin Wolf a81d616437 block: Fix cache mode defaults in bds_tree_init()
Without setting explicit defaults in the options, blockdev-add without
an ID ended up defaulting to writethrough. It should be writeback as
documented.

Kevin Wolf 73176bee99 block: Fix snapshot=on cache modes
Since commit 91a097e, we end up with a somewhat weird cache mode
configuration with snapshot=on: The commit broke the cache mode
inheritance for the snapshot overlay so that it is opened as
writethrough instead of unsafe now. The following bdrv_append() call to
put it on top of the tree swaps the WCE flag with the snapshot's backing
file (i.e. the originally given file), so what we eventually get is
cache=writeback on the temporary overlay and
cache=writethrough,cache.no-flush=on on the real image file.

This patch changes things so that the temporary overlay gets
cache=unsafe again like it used to, and the real images get whatever the
user specified. This means that cache.direct is now respected even with
snapshot=on, and in the case of committing changes, the final flush is
no longer ignored except explicitly requested by the user.

Kevin Wolf f86b8b584b blockdev: Snapshotting must not open second instance of old top
Calling bdrv_img_create() with a size of -1 means that it determines the
size automatically by opening the backing file. However, in the case of
live snapshots, the backing file is already opened and we must avoid
opening the same image twice at the same time. Apart from that, just
getting the size from the already existing BDS is a lot less overhead
than opening a new instance.

Eric Blake 10f759079e qapi: Avoid use of 'data' member of QAPI unions
QAPI code generators currently create a 'void *data' member as
part of the anonymous union embedded in the C struct corresponding
to a QAPI union.  However, directly assigning to this member of
the union feels a bit fishy, when we can assign to another member
of the struct instead.

This patch introduces a new throttle_config_init() function and uses it

There's no need to keep throttle_conflicting(), throttle_is_valid()

patch merges all three into one.

As a consequence, check_throttle_config() becomes redundant and can be
